    I was already in difficulty, exacerbated by going onto maternity pay


    If you were already in difficulty then you shouldn’t have taken out the car finance 🤷‍♀️
    That was your responsibility not the lender
    Seems a pattern here of blaming everyone except yourself

    Another thread you’ve started is reference getting a mortgage in a few years time, if you fall behind with mortgage payments are you going to be blaming the lender for offering you the mortgage? (If by some miracle you get a mortgage)
